The plot, which takes place in an alternate storyline between the events of Tekken 5 and Tekken 6, begins with Anna Williams setting up a decoy for her sister, Nina Williams, who is currently working with the new head of the Mishima Zaibatsu, Jin Kazama. It was often considered as one of the best adaptations based on the video game series. Nevertheless, the film attracted Western audiences upon release. The film was praised for its visuals and fight sequences, but criticized for its short length and few characters who have little impact in the story. It was later included with the video game Tekken 3D: Prime Edition. The 2D version of the film was also released as a standalone DVD on November 22, 2011, in the US, and December 22, 2011, in Japan. The film was released on Blu-ray Disc (included on the disc of the video game collection Tekken Hybrid) in the United States on November 22, 2011, and in Japan on December 1, 2011. It was released in Japan on September 3, 2011, by Namco Pictures. Tekken: Blood Vengeance was released in the United States on July 26, 2011, and in Australia on July 27, 2011, in a special exclusive one-off screening. Satō was given freedom by the video game series' executive director Katsuhiro Harada to write the film, which led him to the idea of Blood Vengeance being a buddy film by two female characters from different generations of video games. The two meet the test subject Shin Kamiya, who is being sought by his former friend Jin Kazama and his father Kazuya Mishima, but is also being used by Heihachi Mishima to set a new family fight.

The film places focus on the young martial artist Ling Xiaoyu, who investigates experiments involving a supernatural curse related with the Mishima family, while befriending a robot named Alisa Bosconovitch. Tekken: Blood Vengeance ( Japanese: 鉄拳 ブラッド・ベンジェンス, Hepburn: Tekken Buraddo Benjensu) is a 2011 Japanese 3D computer-animated science fiction martial arts film directed by Yōichi Mōri from a screenplay by Dai Satō, based on the video game series Tekken published by Namco Bandai Games.
